Last Wednesday evening the MEM
bers of the Congregational church
celebrated the 25th anniversary of
their society. A sumptuous banquet
was served in the chapel to over 200
persons, after which the exercises in
the church took place. The program
was as follows: Prayer by Rev. Lit
tie; solo, by Miss Anna Dafoe; his
tory of the church, read by Rev. Van
Auken; reading of letters from for
mer pastors solo, by HI. S. Seage /;
address by Rev. Allen "reminiscences
by pioneer, among whom were +. K.
Potter and Capt. Persons. A history
of the church was given in the ARGUS
last week, Twenty-Five years is but
a very short time in the history of
the world, but it is long period in
Alpena's history. At that date the
city did not have only about fifty
houses, few mills, no regular mail or
transportation, and where the Congre-
gational church now stands, was then
wilderness. The next twenty-five
years will make still greater changes.

The log cars, with bunk, are called
donkeys. They consist of a truck
with four wheels. On this truck is a
massive bunk similar to those on a
log sleigh-that is, strong timber, in
length the width of car. On each
end is chain which is bound around
the outside log of the lower tier, and
serves to keep the logs from rolling
off the car. The logs are stacked on
the car somewhat in the shape of a
pyramid. For instance, if there are
FIVE logs in the first tier, the second
will have four, the next three, the
next two, and the last has one, and
the only difference between such a
load and a regular log sleigh load, is
that it is on wheels instead of runners.
The "donkeys" are we'll loaded, and
are far better adapted for hauling
logs than fat cars. The latter, in
winter, are heavily coated with part
snow and ice. In many cases the top
of the fiat car is thus covered to a
depth of six inches.

The weather signals will not be dis
played from the U. S. station at this
and other points of the country, owing
to Congress having failed to make the
necessary appropriations to pay for
telegraphing the reports from WASH
ington to the various places. The
signals were displayed in this city one
week, and the flags were donated by
Field q Gray, Bolton ~ McRae, Pot
ter Bros. & Co. and G. HI. Reynolds.
The citizens will have to guess at the
weather, same as in the past, and
the weather prophet can again put in
his work.

Boiler Explosion-Three Men Killed

Dolier Expl0sl0n-Three Men Killed
Yesterday morning the boiler in
the single mill of the Carr Bros
exploded, killing three men-Emery
Carr, Eugene Carr, and Waldo Carr
The mill Is situated on the eastern
shore of Alpena township, opposite
Middle Island. The mill started up
in the morning with rs pounds Of
steam a stop was made short time
after to fix some of the machinery
an unusual steam pressure must have
collected causing the explosion. The
brother in front Of the boiler was in
stantly killed, the other two we're so
badly injured and scalded that they
died soon after. The boiler, new
one, weighing five tons, was thrown
200 feet. The firm was cutting
shingles for j. Monaghan. The ex-
plosion is supposed to have been
caused by defect in the safety valve.
The deceased are members Of the
Guards.
